Das Erwärmen eines Heizelementes durch Induktion ist bekannt. Dabei führt eine Verlustleistung eines hochfrequenten Wechselfeldes, welches von einer Induktionsspule, dem sogenannten Induktor, durch magnetische Kopplung in einem Teil des Heizelementes erzeugt wird, zu der Erwärmung des Heizelementes. Dieses Prinzip wird z.B. bei Induktionskochfeldern verwendet, bei denen die Wärme eines Kochgefäßes in dessen Boden durch Induktion erzeugt wird.The heating of a heating element by induction is known. In this case, a power loss of a high-frequency alternating field, which is generated by an induction coil, the so-called inductor, by magnetic coupling in a part of the heating element, leads to the heating of the heating element. This principle is e.g. used in induction hobs, in which the heat of a cooking vessel is produced in the bottom by induction.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Temperaturregelung eines induktiv erwärmten Heizelementes zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches unabhängig von dem Zustand des Heizelementes und für unterschiedliche Heizelemente funktioniert.The invention has for its object to provide a method for controlling the temperature of an inductively heated heating element available, which works regardless of the state of the heating element and for different heating elements.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, dass die Temperaturregelung zu einem ersten Zeitpunkt aktiviert wird, dass abhängig von mindestens einer elektrischen Größe der Steuerschaltung, die von der Temperatur des Heizelementes abhängt, zu diesem ersten Zeitpunkt ein Referenzwert bzw. ein Sollwert bestimmt wird, dass abhängig von der elektrischen Größe zu zumindest einem späteren Zeitpunkt ein Vergleichswert bzw. ein Istwert und eine Abweichung dieses Vergleichswertes von dem Referenzwert bestimmt wird, und dass dem Induktor abhängig von der Abweichung Leistung zugeführt wird, so dass die Temperatur des Heizelementes auf einen dem Referenzwert entsprechenden konstanten Wert geregelt wird.This object is achieved by a method of the type mentioned in that the temperature control is activated at a first time that, depending on at least one electrical variable of the control circuit, which depends on the temperature of the heating element, at this first time a reference value or a Specified value is determined that depending on the electrical quantity at least a later time a comparison value or an actual value and a deviation of this comparison value is determined by the reference value, and that the inductor depending on the deviation power is supplied, so that the temperature of the heating element is controlled to a constant value corresponding to the reference value.
Des weiteren wird die Aufgabe durch eine Steuerschaltung der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, dass die Steuerschaltung ein Bedienelement zur Aktivierung der Temperaturregelung umfasst, dass die Steuerschaltung zumindest eine Messeinrichtung zur Bestimmung von mindestens einer elektrischen Größe der Steuerschaltung, die von der Temperatur des Heizelementes abhängt, umfasst, dass die Steuerschaltung zur Bestimmung eines von der elektrischen Größe abhängigen Referenzwertes zu einem Aktivierungszeitpunkt der Temperaturregelung und zur Bestimmung eines von der elektrischen Größe abhängigen Vergleichswertes zu zumindest einem späteren Zeitpunkt ausgebildet ist, dass die Steuerschaltung eine Vergleichseinheit zur Bestimmung einer Abweichung des Vergleichswertes von dem Referenzwert umfasst, und dass die Steuerschaltung eine Steuereinheit zur Steuerung des Leistungsreglers abhängig von der Abweichung umfasst, zur Temperaturregelung des Heizelementes auf einen dem Referenzwert entsprechenden konstanten Wert.Furthermore, the object is achieved by a control circuit of the type mentioned above in that the control circuit comprises a control element for activating the temperature control that the control circuit at least one measuring device for determining at least one electrical variable of the control circuit, which depends on the temperature of the heating element, in that the control circuit is designed to determine a reference value dependent on the electrical variable at an activation time of the temperature control and for determining a comparison value dependent on the electrical variable at least at a later point in time, that the control circuit comprises a comparison unit for determining a deviation of the comparison value from the reference value Reference value comprises, and that the control circuit comprises a control unit for controlling the power controller depending on the deviation, for controlling the temperature of the heating element to a reference value corresponding constant value.
Dadurch dass zum Aktivierungszeitpunkt der Temperaturregelung abhängig von der elektrischen Größe der Steuerschaltung der Referenzwert bestimmt und dieser mit dem Vergleichswert verglichen wird, der zu, zumindest einem späteren Zeitpunkt abhängig von der elektrischen Größe der Steuerschaltung bestimmt wird, ist auf einfache Art und Weise sicher gestellt, dass die Temperaturregelung auf eine dem Referenzwert entsprechende Temperatur von der Wahl des Heizelementes unabhängig ist. Vorteilhaft ist darüber hinaus, dass die Temperatur des Heizelementes somit ohne Kenntnis einer spezifischen Temperatur-Kennlinie der elektrischen Größe für das Heizelement geregelt werden kann. Auf diese Weise ist die Temperaturregelung selbst dann funktionsfähig, wenn das Heizelement ungenau zu dem Induktor positioniert ist.The fact that, at the time of activation of the temperature control, the reference value is determined as a function of the electrical variable of the control circuit and compared with the comparison value determined at least at a later time depending on the electrical size of the control circuit, is ensured in a simple manner, that the temperature control is independent of the choice of the heating element to a temperature corresponding to the reference value. It is also advantageous that the temperature of the heating element can thus be controlled without knowing a specific temperature characteristic of the electrical variable for the heating element. In this way, the temperature control is functional even if the heating element is positioned inaccurate to the inductor.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass die Temperaturregelung von einem Benutzer durch Betätigung eines Bedienelementes aktiviert werden kann, welches insbesondere zumindest ein Schalter oder zumindest ein Berührungssensor ist. Dadurch kann der Benutzer die gewünschte Temperatur des Heizelementes bestimmen, in dem er z.B. bei einer Induktionskochzone eines Induktionskochfeldes die Temperaturregelung dann aktiviert, wenn Wasser in einem Kochgefäß auf dieser Induktionskochzone zu kochen beginnt oder ein Gargut in dem Kochgefäß auf einer, von dem Benutzer subjektiv bestimmten Temperatur gehalten werden soll. Die Temperatur des Heizelementes, wie z.B. des Kochgefäßes, wird nach Aktivierung der Temperaturregelung beibehalten, ohne mit einem Sensor die absolute Temperatur des Heizelementes bestimmen zu müssen. Die elektrischen Leistung wird automatisch geregelt, um die Temperatur des Heizelementes auf der dem Referenzwert entsprechenden Temperatur zu halten und ein manuelles Nachregeln der elektrischen Leistung durch den Benutzer, ist auch dann nicht notwendig, wenn z.B. während eines Kochprozesses noch kaltes Gargut dem Kochgefäß zugeführt wird.According to a preferred embodiment it is provided that the temperature control can be activated by a user by actuation of a control element, which is in particular at least one switch or at least one touch sensor. This allows the user to determine the desired temperature of the heating element by e.g. at an induction cooking zone of an induction hob, the temperature control is activated when water begins to boil in a cooking vessel on this induction cooking zone or a food in the cooking vessel is to be kept at a subjectively determined by the user temperature. The temperature of the heating element, e.g. of the cooking vessel, is maintained after activation of the temperature control, without having to determine the absolute temperature of the heating element with a sensor. The electrical power is automatically controlled to maintain the temperature of the heating element at the reference temperature and manual readjustment of the electrical power by the user is not necessary even if e.g. During a cooking process still cold food is supplied to the cooking vessel.
Vorteilhafterweise kann der Vergleichswert der elektrischen Größe in vorgegebenen, insbesondere periodischen Zeitabständen bestimmt werden. Auf diese Weise wird die Genauigkeit der Temperaturregelung erhöht, da Änderungen der Temperatur des Heizelementes durch z.B. äußere Einflüsse in regelmäßigen Zeitabständen erfasst werden und die dem Induktor zugeführte elektrische Leistung entsprechend nachgeregelt wird, um die Temperatur konstant zu halten.Advantageously, the comparison value of the electrical variable can be determined in predetermined, in particular periodic time intervals. In this way, the accuracy of the temperature control is increased since changes in the temperature of the heating element are caused by e.g. external influences are detected at regular intervals and the inductor supplied electrical power is readjusted accordingly to keep the temperature constant.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform werden der Referenzwert und/oder der Vergleichswert bei einer vorgegebenen Frequenz der elektrischen Größe bestimmt. Dieses Vorgehen hat den Vorteil, dass frequenzabhängige Einflüsse des Heizelementes oder der Bestimmung des Referenzwertes bzw. des Vergleichswertes vermieden werden, wodurch die Genauigkeit der Temperaturregelung erhöht werden kann.According to a preferred embodiment, the reference value and / or the comparison value are determined at a predetermined frequency of the electrical variable. This procedure has the advantage that frequency-dependent influences of the heating element or the determination of the reference value or the comparison value can be avoided, whereby the accuracy of the temperature control can be increased.

In Figur 1 ist ein Induktionskochfeld 1 mit einer Steuerschaltung 2 zur Temperaturregelung eines Kochgefäßes 3 gezeigt. Das Induktionskochfeld 1 weist eine Glaskeramikplatte 4 mit vier Induktionskochzonen 5 auf, an deren Position sich unter der Glaskeramikplatte je ein Induktor 6 befindet. Das Kochgefäß 3 wird durch einen der Induktoren 6 beheizt. Zur Bedienung der Induktoren 6 ist an einer Front 7 der Glaskeramikplatte eine Bedieneinheit 8 angeordnet. Diese Bedieneinheit 8 umfasst Bedienelemente 9 zur Aktivierung und Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung.FIG. 1 shows an
Wie in Figur 2 gezeigt, umfasst die Steuerschaltung 2 den Induktor 6 zur induktiven Erwärmung eines Heizelementes 3, wie beispielsweise des Kochgefäßes 3 in Figur 1, einen Leistungsregler 10 zur Regelung einer dem Induktor 6 zugeführten elektrischen Leistung P, eine Messeinrichtung 11 zur Messung elektrischer Größen νo, io, P , I der Steuerschaltung 2, ein Bedienelement 9 zur Aktivierung und Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung und eine Steuereinheit 12, wie z.B. einen Mikroprozessor, zur Steuerung des Leistungsreglers 10. Die Steuerschaltung 2 wird von einer Spannungsquelle 13 mit einer Eingangsspannung νi versorgt, die eine Wechselspannung ist. Der Leistungsregler 10 umfasst üblicherweise einen Umrichter (nicht gezeigt), der die Eingangsspannung νi mit einer Eingangsfrequenz von beispielsweise 50 Hz in eine Ausgangsspannung νo umwandelt, die in einem höheren Frequenzbereich liegt, z.B. über 25 kHz. Zur Steuerung der Leistung, die z.B. über einen Drehwähler der Bedieneinheit 8 voreingestellt ist, sind verschiedene Prinzipien bekannt, z.B. ein periodisches An- und Ausschalten der Ausgangsspannung ν o , eine Frequenzanpassung der Ausgangsspannung ν o oder eine Steuerstromänderung. Die Temperaturregelung wird von dem Bedienelement 9 durch ein Steuersignal ST an die Steuereinheit 12 aktiviert. Die von der Messeinrichtung 11 erfassten elektrischen Größen ν o , io, P , I der Steuerschaltung 2 werden der Steuereinheit 12 zugeführt und dort zu einem Steuersignal für die Leistungssteuerung SP verarbeitet. Aufgrund des Steuersignals für die Leistungssteuerung SP, das dem Leistungsregler 10 zugeführt wird, wird die dem Induktor 6 zugeführte elektrische Leistung P geregelt und somit eine in dem Heizelement 3 erzeugte Wärmeleistung W.As shown in Figure 2, the
In Figur 3a ist eine Detailskizze der Steuerschaltung 2 gezeigt. Die Steuerschaltung 2 wird über die Spannungsquelle 13 mit der Eingangsspannung νi versorgt. Die Höhe diese Eingangsspannung νi wird mit Hilfe eines Spannungsteilers 14, der zwei Widerstände R1, R2 umfasst, reduziert und mittels eines Gleichrichters 15 zu einer gleichgerichteten Eingangspannung νr umgeformt. Die Positionen von Spannungsmaxima Vm in einem zeitlichen Verlauf der gleichgerichteten Eingangspannung νr werden mit einem Peakdetektor 16 detektiert und einer Hochspannungsisolation 17 nachgeordnet, wird ein Wert der Spannungsmaxima Vm erfasst. In Figur 3b ist der Verlauf der Eingangsspannung νi und der Verlauf der gleichgerichteten Eingangspannung vr über einer Zeitachse t gezeigt. Im Verlauf der gleichgerichteten Eingangspannung νr ist der Wert der Spannungsmaxima Vm gekennzeichnet.FIG. 3 a shows a detailed sketch of the
Die dem Induktor 6 zugeführte elektrische Leistung P wird von dem Leistungsregler 10 mit Hilfe zweier Hochfrequenzschalter S1, S2 geregelt, die beispielsweise Leistungs-Halbleiterbauelemente sein können. Am Induktor liegt eine Ausgangsspannung νo an und es fließt ein Ausgangsstrom io. Diese beiden elektrischen Größen νo, io werden durch eine Widerstandsänderung des Heizelementes 3 beeinflusst, die von dem Heizelemente 3 und seiner Temperatur T abhängt. Der Ausgangsstrom io wird mit Hilfe eines Strom-Spannungswandlers 18 erfasst, an dessen Widerstand R3 eine Spannung vi anliegt, die proportional dem Ausgangsstrom io . ist. In Figur 3c ist schematisch der detektierte zeitliche Verlauf der Ausgangsspannung vo und des Ausgangsstromes io gezeigt. Eine weitere, alternative Messgröße, die von der Temperatur T des Heizelementes 3 abhängt, ist beispielsweise eine Phasenverschiebung Δt zwischen Ausgangsspannung ν o und Ausgangsstrom io , die z.B. anhand eines Nulldurchganges N1 der Ausgangsspannung ν o und eines Nulldurchganges N2 des Ausgangsstromes io bestimmt werden kann. Es können auch andere elektrische Größen der Steuerschaltung 2 gemessen werden, die von der Temperatur T des Heizelementes 3 abhängen, wie beispielsweise eine gemittelte elektrische Leistung P, ein gemittelter gleichgerichteter Strom I, ein maximaler Strom Imax oder eine Frequenz der Ausgangsspannung vo oder des Ausgangsstromes io .The electrical power P supplied to the
Aus dem Produkt von Ausgangsspannung vo und Ausgangsstrom io kann die gemittelte elektrische Leistung P bestimmt werden
wobei τ einen Mittelungszeitraum angibt. Der gemittelter gleichgerichteter Strom I wird gemäß
wobei kp und kI Konstanten sind, die experimentell bestimmt werden, um eine maximale Variation des Funktionswertes F mit der Temperatur T des Heizelementes 3 zu erzielen. Vrms bezeichnet die Wurzel des quadratischen Mittelwertes der Eingangsspannung ν i . Es sind auch andere Funktionen F möglich, beispielsweise kann die Funktion F auch eine Impedanz von dem Heizelement 3 und dem Induktor 6 sein, die aus einem Verhältnis von gemitteiter Leistung P zu einem Quadrat des gemittelten Stromes I bestimmt wird.From the product of output voltage v o and output current i o , the average electric power P can be determined
where τ indicates an averaging period. The averaged rectified current I is calculated according to
where k p and k I are constants that are determined experimentally to obtain a maximum variation of the function value F with the temperature T of the
In Figur 4 ist ein Ablaufdiagramm der Temperaturregelung des Heizelementes 3 gezeigt. In einem ersten Verfahrensschritt TA wird die Temperaturregelung durch ein Steuersignal ST aktiviert. Damit wird eine normale Leistungssteuerung, der über die Bedieneinheit 8 gewählten Leistung P verlassen und zur Leistungssteuerung mittels Temperaturregelung übergegangen. Dazu wird in einem zweiten Verfahrensschritt RW nahezu gleichzeitig zur Aktivierung der Temperaturregelung ein Referenzwert FR aus dem aktuellen Wert der Funktion F bestimmt, der abhängig von mindestens einer der elektrischen Größen ν o , io, P , I der Steuerschaltung 2 ist, die von der Temperatur T des Heizelementes 3 abhängt. In einem nächsten Verfahrensschritt VW wird abhängig von der elektrischen Größe vo , io , P , I ein Vergleichswert Fv aus der Funktion F und eine Abweichung dieses Vergleichswertes Fv von dem Referenzwert FR bestimmt. In dem nächsten Verfahrensschritt TR wird dem Induktor 6 abhängig von der Abweichung elektrische Leistung P zugeführt, so dass die Temperatur T des Heizelementes 3 auf einen dem Referenzwert FR entsprechenden konstanten Wert geregelt wird. In einem nächsten Verfahrensschritt DA wird geprüft, ob ein Signal ST für eine Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung vorliegt. Ist dies nicht der Fall N so wird mit dem Verfahrensschritt VW fortgefahren. Liegt ein Signal ST zur Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung vor Y, so wird die Temperaturregelung in dem nächsten Verfahrensschritt TE beendet und eine Leistungssteuerung L der elektrischen Leistung P wird ohne Temperaturregelung mit dem Leistungsregler 10 entsprechend der mittels der Bedieneinheit 8 gewählten Leistung P durchgeführt.FIG. 4 shows a flow chart of the temperature control of the
In Figur 5 ist schematisch ein zeitlicher Verlauf der Temperaturregelung gezeigt. Zu einem Zeitpunkt t0 wird der Induktor 6 mit dem Heizelement 3 aktiviert und dem Induktor 6 somit eine mittels der Bedieneinheit 8 gewählte elektrische Leistung P1 zugeführt, die über den Leistungsregler 10 gesteuert wird und das Heizelement 3 auf eine Temperatur T1 aufheizt. Zu einem Zeitpunkt t1 wird von einem Benutzer durch Betätigung des Bedienelements 9, welches beispielsweise ein Schalter oder ein Berührungssensor ist, die Temperaturregelung aktiviert. Zu diesem ersten Zeitpunkt t1 wird der Referenzwert FR und zu späteren Zeitpunkten t2 bis t7, die vorteilhaft in periodischen Zeitabständen liegen, jeweils der Vergleichswert FV bestimmt. Während des Mittelungszeitraumes τ, den die Messeinrichtung 11 zur Messung M der elektrischen Größen ν o , io , P , I benötigt, wird die Frequenz der Ausgangsspannung ν o bzw. des Ausgangsstromes io auf einen vorgegebenen Wert geregelt und die Leistungssteuerung L des Leistungsreglers 10 wird solange unterbrochen. Da der Mittelungszeitraum τ typischerweise in der Größenordnung von 10 bis 800 Millisekunden liegt, ist dieser Zeitraum im Vergleich zur typischen Dauer d der Leistungssteuerung L von 5 bis 15 Sekunden vernachlässigbar gering.FIG. 5 schematically shows a time profile of the temperature control. At a time t 0, the
Sobald die Temperaturregelung aktiviert ist, wird die dem Induktor 6 zugeführte elektrische Leistung von dem Leistungswert P1 auf einen geringeren Leistungswert P2 reduziert, um den Temperaturwert T1 des Heizelementes 3 konstant zu halten. Zu einem Zeitpunkt t4 wird das Heizelement 3 durch einen äußeren Einfluss abgekühlt, beispielsweise indem einem Kochgefäß 3 kalte Flüssigkeit zugeführt wird. Diese Abkühlung des Heizelementes 3 auf einen Temperaturwert T2 wird durch die Abweichung des Vergleichswertes FV von dem Referenzwert FR erfasst. Daraufhin bewirkt die Temperaturregelung eine Erhöhung der dem Induktor 6 zugeführten elektrischen Leistung auf einen Wert P3, um das Heizelement 3 wieder auf die Temperatur T1 aufzuheizen. Bis die Temperatur T1 wieder erreicht ist, kann die dem Induktor 6 zugeführte elektrische Leistung P schrittweise bis zu einem Wert P4 reduziert werden. Dieser Leistungswert P4 wird nun dem Induktor 6 zugeführt, um das Heizelement 3 auf dem konstanten Temperaturwert T1 zu halten. Die Temperaturregelung bleibt solange aktiv, bis sie beispielsweise durch Betätigen des Bedienelementes 9 durch den Benutzer deaktiviert wird. Eine andere Möglichkeit der Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung ist beispielsweise das Entfernen des Heizelementes 3 von dem Induktor 6, eine Deaktivierung des Induktors 6 durch den Benutzer oder eine andere Leistungsvorgabe für den Induktor 6 über die Bedieneinheit 8.Once the temperature control is activated, the electric power supplied to the
Als ein weiteres Anwendungsbeispiel für die Temperaturregelung des induktiv beheizten Heizelementes 3 ist in Figur 6 schematisch ein Induktionsofen 19 dargestellt. Die Bedieneinheit 8 des Induktionsofens 19, die sich an einer Frontseite 20 des Induktionsofens befindet, umfasst das Bedienelement 9 zur Aktivierung und Deaktivierung der Temperaturregelung. Eine Beschickungsöffnung 21 des Induktionsofens 19 ist durch Seitenwände 22, eine Deckenwand 23 und eine Bodenwand 24, sowie eine Rückwand 26 und eine Tür (in der Figur 6 nicht gezeigt) begrenzt. Die Induktoren 6 befinden sich beispielsweise an der Deckenwand 23 und an der Bodenwand 24 des Induktionsofens 19 und sind durch die Heizelemente 3 abgedeckt. Die Induktoren 6 und die Heizelemente 3 können ebenso an den Seitenwänden 22 angebracht sein. Alternativ kann das Heizelement 3 auch ein Gargutträger, wie beispielsweise ein Backblech sein, oder eine der Seitenwände 22, die Deckenwand 23 oder die Bodenwand 24.As a further example of application for the temperature control of the inductively
